Like most bloggers out there, I am a person who wants to go outside the 9-5 jobs and blogging is one of my ways to escape it. At this point of time, I just want to show to the whole world how grateful I am that I earned my first ever $16 dollars on blogging.
“The path to success is so narrow that is why there’s only 1% of the world population reached it.”
I started my blogging way back 2012 where I wrote news articles and showbiz stories within the Philippines; www.newstrendzph.com was my domain. By that time social media is not yet a hit. I normally watched TV shows and then wrote my opinion and reaction. During that time, I am using blogger.com. I tried my very best to earn money using Google adsense; but every time I applied to be approved, I always failed.
Then, one of my classmates told me to use wordpress.
It took me a lot of energy to study wordpress and avail hosting with hostgator. That time I was an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) and I can really afford to pay my domain and my hosting.
2018, I started this web blogs, www.betterandfree.co. This is the blog site where I immerse myself with technology, business, and personal excellence in life. I tried my very best to find the niche. Since I love studying life, business and technology, these are the topics that I want to incorporate on this blog.
2019, I hired 3 writers to write on this blog but it seems that my readers and people who come to my blog are not so huge enough to cover up my expenses. Then I decided to stop and do it on my own.
2020 was the year that I decided to go back in the Philippines. I was sicked, I was stressed, I was in a huge debt, but I still have my hope that everything will works well.
2021 came and I was shocked that I got $15 dollars from adsense. It’s not so big but I believe, it will be a starting to earn money online. My desire and passion for writing fires up again.
At this point of time there is a light within me and a great passion to come back on writing because I have $16 now on my adsense account. Even if it’s small but I believe that small things can be big in the future. I believe that when you start small you can dream big.
I believe that when I was in primary/elementary, I do not know how to read and write but eventually I learned. Same as in blogging, I just start it knowing and believing that there is a diamond on it that needs dig to find it.
This story of $16 blogging, will be soon an inspiration for many Filipinos and other bloggers worldwide.
This blog is going to see more on social media and going to tell more stories of how-to, business start-ups, inspiration, and a lot of more.
“Internet is a main thing; social media and smartphones dominates the market. There are still more things that human cannot be discovered and invented. Let us all discover more hidden treasures on this planet and give more opportunities for many human like us to arise and shine and be out of poverty.”
